Question

How do you protect heavily travelled grass?

Answer 1

The best thing to do would be to make a path out of a material of your choosing.  If you don't want to do this you can use a plastic leaf rake and rake up the grass so it doens't get to matted.

Answer 2

You take it out and lay a path of gravel, mulch, pavers, stepping stones, flagstone. It will look much nicer than dead lawn.
